SPARK!
Spark is Dominic's cat. Actually, he's more of a roommate. Oh, and he can talk.
Besides the ability to speak, Spark is like most cats. He loves to eat, sleep, play, and demands constant attention. Oh, and fish.
Spark is a mischievous cat, but loves his boss and does his best to keep him safe. If Dominic was to get hurt, who would feed him?!
BRIEF HISTORY
Many people assume that Spark is Dominic Deegan's "familiar," an animal companion magically bound to a spellcaster who serves its master without question. While that is the true definition of a familiar, that is far from the definition of Spark. There are many animals in the magical kingdom of Callan that can speak the language of humans. Spark is one such creature. While his ability to speak may make him seem a little more human, it does not make him any less cat. Dominic quickly learned how demanding cats can be when they can clearly tell you what they want.
Besides his ability to talk, Spark's past isn't all that extraordinary. He was born in a pet shop near Quiral. He was sold to another pet shop when he started talking. Some wizards and spellcasters prefer talking animals. Spark heard the horror stories some pets had to endure under a wizard's wand, so he stopped talking. When he was sold to another ordinary pet shop near Lynn's Brook, he picked his owner. The runty, skinny orange cat quickly attracted the attention of a grumpy looking fellow who smelled like smoke. When Dominic took him home, Spark opened his mouth and told his new owner how things would be now that he was his roommate.
CURRENT STATUS
Things pretty much progressed from there. Spark, for all his pranks, laziness and general mischief, genuinely likes Dominic and would never want anything to happen to him. He calls him "Boss" out of respect. He has an affinity for alliteration and, before it broke, hiding Dominic's crystal ball.
Oh, and he loves fish. A lot.
